Kaivokselan Pumppupuisto was named after the pump factory of Sarlin that previously operated in the area. The design process of the area began in 2016, and we were able to start the construction in the summer of 2017. The buildings, designed in conformity with our concept Nero, are completed in stages: The first building was completed in August 2018, the next stage in early autumn of 2019, and the rest of the project by the end of 2019. The versatile area consists of owner-occupied flats, non-subsidised rented flats, and buildings suitable for investments. Most of the flats are one-room flats, and their size varies between 25 and 65 square metres.
Our biggest project so far
Kaivokselan Pumppupuisto is an area construction project. It consists of three blocks and includes various modes of living. Area construction projects are typically conducted by many cooperating actors. This can prove to be challenging because the schedules must be coordinated.
The construction of Pumppupuisto, however, has progressed as planned, which shows that Lehto’s housing product Nero is a carefully designed and thoroughly defined concept of construction that can also be applied to bigger projects.
